ZIP Extractor & Creator

Open a .zip to preview and pull out exactly the files you need, or bundle files into a new archive — all on your own device, nothing uploads.

🔐 This ZIP is password-protected. Honest answer: encrypted ZIPs can’t be opened in-browser — the JavaScript ZIP engine doesn’t support decryption, and we’ll never upload your archive to a server to work around that. Use 7-Zip, WinRAR or your OS archiver instead.

Already-compressed files (JPG, MP4, ZIP) barely shrink at any level.

Why zip & unzip in the browser?

Online "unzip" sites upload your archive to their servers — risky for contracts, source code or personal photos. HeroTools opens and builds ZIP files entirely on your own device, works offline, and lets you preview text and images before extracting anything. One honest limit: password-protected (encrypted) ZIPs can’t be opened in-browser — for those, use a desktop archiver like 7-Zip.
